Any building or structure having a nonconforming feature may be maintained, enlarged,
extended or structurally altered, provided that such enlargement, extension or structural
alteration shall not increase the degree or extent of the nonconforming feature and
provided, further, that no building or structure having a nonconforming feature shall
be moved, reconstructed or substituted with another building or structure unless such
nonconforming feature is thereby eliminated and the building or structure is made
to conform with this chapter. Vertical expansion of that part of a building which
is nonconforming with regard to a yard or open space requirement shall be considered
an increase in the extent of the nonconforming feature and shall not be permitted.
For the purpose of this section, the installation of wireless communications facilities,
microwave relay facilities, or radio and television broadcast antennas, through use
of alternative support structures, shall not be deemed to increase the degree or extent
of a nonconforming feature, as set forth in Section 30-692.3, provided the applicable requirements of that section are met.
